Join us next Wednesday for our Spring Forward webinar on data privacy with @onekade.bsky.social of @aclum.bsky.social! #mapoli actionnetwork.org/events/sprin...

Announcing the @progressivemass.bsky.social Virtual Awards Night! mailchi.mp/jpprogressiv... And read this week's newsletter.

Brant Duncan of @aftmass.bsky.social on the fiscal crisis facing communities: “To call the situation dire would not be hyperbolic.” #mapoli

Cari Medina of @1199seiu.org is talking about how a $5B budget hole would be “literally deadly.” #mapoli

Max Page of @massteacher.bsky.social emphasizes that the High-Tech Council, MOA, and Pioneer aren’t interested in deal-making: they are acting like gangsters using blackmail. #mapoli

Phineas Baxandall of @massbudget.bsky.social underscores the point that tax cuts do not pay for themselves. These ballot questions will harm our state’s ability to fund essential services. #mapoli

MIT professor Jonathan Gruber states clearly that cutting taxes will not spur economic growth and these ballot questions would harm the foundations of MA’s prosperity and destroy local budgets. #mapoli

Chair Cindy Friedman points out that the tax-cutting questions do not address housing and health care, the real drivers of higher costs. #mapoli

Rep. Alice Peisch points out how the last tax cut ballot question led to a sharp decline in local aid, and our cities and towns already financial struggles. #mapoli

Great point from Rep. Frank Moran about how the tax-cutting question will harm communities like Lawrence through meager benefits and decimated public services. #mapoli

Good on Rep. Mike Day for pushing back on the money laundering going on by the Massachusetts Opportunity Alliance. #mapoli

Great points from Rep. Mike Day about the dishonesty of the Pioneer Institute, Massachusetts Opportunity Alliance, and High-Tech Council in the numbers that they are using, and about how quality of life, health care access, and education in MA are much higher than in low-tax states. #mapoli

Great comments from Sen. Barry Finegold about high-quality public education being a foundation for competitiveness and about our outmigration problem being a housing issue, not a tax issue. #mapoli

Save Our State rally targeting the corporations backing a ballot question to gut essential services #mapoli

The Massachusetts Opportunity Alliance and the Massachusetts High-Tech Council are pushing trickle-down economics and junk math in service of decimating the state budget to enrich the rich. #mapoli

Glad that we’re honoring Pat. Join us! #mapoli

Had a lot of fun tabling for @progressivemass.bsky.social at the Boston No Kings rally today and honing my pitch of asking people to write three postcards (one to your state senator, one to your state rep, and one to your future self).

Some great signs from No Kings Boston

We are honored to award State Senator Pat Jehlen at our Virtual Awards Night on Sunday, April 26th! A stalwart progressive in the Legislature, Senator Jehlen has spent her combined 50 years in public office championing the pivotal issues our communities face! Join us! tinyurl.com/pmvirtualawa...

“Massachusetts is paying significantly more than other states for communications services and … some of its own sheriffs have negotiated far lower rates than others." #mapoli www.wwlp.com/news/massach...

📣

Yesterday, the House voted 134 to 21 for the PROTECT Act, which restricts communication and collaboration between state and local law enforcement and ICE and expands protections for our immigrant communities. TY to the 134 who voted yes! #mapoli www.progressivemass.com/ma-house-pas...

📢 JOIN US FOR ROUND 2! 📢 The Save Our State protest is coming back, and this time we're on the move! Join labor and community partners Monday, March 30th in Post Office Square, Boston to tell members of the MHTC and MACP to RESIGN. RSVP: raiseupma.us/sos

PM joined more than 100 organizations from across the state on a letter to the Legislature urging them to pass key priorities to move away from mass incarceration. Let your legislators know you agree. #mapoli actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

I've been asked recently for something on Why Ed Markey / Why Not Seth Moulton, so I decided to do a stock-taking of Seth Moulton's record. jonathancohn.medium.com/ma-elects-fi...

Missed our Congressional candidate interview series? Check out the videos here! #mapoli bit.ly/PMCongInterv...

"MA has always prided itself on being a place that invests in people and in education, in public health, in infrastructure, in the idea that a functioning society is worth paying for. The Fair Share Amendment is simply the latest chapter in that tradition." #mapoli recorder.com/2026/03/23/m...

Draining revenue is the opposite of what we tax payers need in Massachusetts!

"Children of any immigration status need to be in school and Massachusetts must do more on their behalf." #mapoli hometownweekly.net/letters/read...

The Massachusetts High Tech Council and Opportunity Alliance support tax breaks that drain $5B from education, healthcare. #SaveOurState #mapoli @raiseupma.bsky.social

"People are raising really legitimate questions about whether we should be playing with a technology and a siting process that could have such negative results for affordability of electricity, for carbon pollution & emissions, for availability of fresh water." commonwealthbeacon.org/energy/shift...

Excited for this next month! #mapoli
